A new year

Happy 2011! I know I am running a month behind but what a month it has been. Meg was sick the first week or so, nothing out of the ordinary. Then on the 10th my grandmother made a trip to the emergency room and it has been a roller coaster ride since. My sweet grandmother had been sick with a cold. As you know, when you are sick with a cold, you don't really feel like eating. My 80 year old grandmother, who only weighs about 80 pounds, had become severly dehydrated and when my mom found her, she thought she had had a stroke. An ambulance rushed her to the hospital and I met them at the ER. If you had asked me that day if I thought that my grandmother would make it to her 81st birthday on February 7th, I would have told you no. But today she moved into Wellington Place and we are so excited! It has been a long road - in DRMC, out of DRMC, back to DRMC, on to St. Dominics - but we are so glad to have her in town. I just pray she enjoys meeting new friends and the transition is an easy one. God is good!
I do have to mention one bright spot of 2011 so far, my beloved Auburn Tigers won the National Championship! Yes, that is right, they are the greatest college football team in the world!!! (I can say world because no other country plays football) WAR DAMN EAGLE!
So here's to 2011, may it be happy, stress free and productive and may it be filled with love because everyone could use a little more of that!
Happy New Year!
